Q13.5 (e):
A particle is in linear simple harmonic motion between two points, A and B, 10 cm apart. Take the direction from A to B as the positive direction and give the signs of velocity, acceleration and force on the particle when it is
at 3 cm away from A going towards B, and
Solution :
1. Given Variables & Coordinate System
The total distance between points $A$ and $B$ is the path length $L = 10\text{ cm}$. The mean position $O$ is the center of this path.
- Total path length: $L = 2A = 10\text{ cm} \implies$ Amplitude $A = 5\text{ cm}$.
- Let the mean position $O$ be at coordinate $x = 0$.
- The extreme point $A$ is at $x = -5\text{ cm}$.
- The extreme point $B$ is at $x = +5\text{ cm}$.
- Direction $A \to B$ is positive ($+x$ direction).
2. Position Analysis
The particle is $3\text{ cm}$ away from $A$ towards $B$. Since $A$ is at $x = -5\text{ cm}$ and the motion is towards the right ($+x$):
$x = -5\text{ cm} + 3\text{ cm} = -2\text{ cm}$.
The position of the particle is $x = -2\text{ cm}$ (which is to the left of the mean position $O$).
3. Determining Signs of Kinematic Quantities
| Quantity | Sign | Justification |
|---|---|---|
| Velocity ($v$) | Positive ($+$) | The problem states the particle is moving from $A$ towards $B$. By our coordinate system definition, this is the positive direction [Per the definition of velocity as the rate of change of position]. |
| Acceleration ($a$) | Positive ($+$) | In SHM, $a = -\omega^2 x$. Since $x = -2\text{ cm}$ (negative), then $a = -\omega^2(-2) = +2\omega^2$. Thus, acceleration is directed towards the mean position (positive $x$-axis) [Per Hooke's Law and Newton's Second Law]. |
| Force ($F$) | Positive ($+$) | Since $F = ma$, and mass $m$ is a scalar constant, the sign of $F$ must follow the sign of $a$. Since $a$ is positive, $F$ is also positive [Per Newton’s Second Law, $F=ma$]. |
4. Summary of Analytical Findings
At the position $x = -2\text{ cm}$ moving towards $B$ ($+x$ direction):
- Velocity ($v$): Positive, as the motion is in the assigned positive direction ($A \to B$).
- Acceleration ($a$): Positive, because the restoring force is directed towards the mean position ($x=0$), and since the particle is at $x=-2$, the mean position is in the $+x$ direction.
- Force ($F$): Positive, as it follows the direction of the acceleration vector.
Final Solution: The velocity is positive (+), the acceleration is positive (+), and the force is positive (+).

My students get acquainted with me easily and they feel more comfortable in the learning process. Success is not an overnight process. I focus on building their fundamentals & basics, make them more confident, believe themselves & eventually turn them into successful person. Your learning process with me will be in a new perspective and also exam oriented to score good marks.

I am an educator with 9 years of teaching experience, specializing in English and Social Science for students from Class 1 to Class 12. Over the years, I have worked with learners from diverse academic backgrounds and age groups, helping them build a strong understanding of concepts while improving their overall academic performance and confidence. I hold a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree and have also completed a TESOL certification. This professional training has strengthened my ability to teach English effectively, especially to students who are developing their language skills. It has helped me adopt learner-friendly techniques that focus on clarity, communication, and real-life usage of the language. My teaching experience spans primary, middle, and senior secondary levels, which allows me to adapt my teaching style according to the learner’s age and learning pace. In both English and Social Science, I focus on developing conceptual clarity, critical thinking, and answer-writing skills that are essential for school exams and overall academic growth. I follow a structured and well-planned lesson approach for every class. Each topic is taught step by step, starting from the basics and gradually moving to deeper understanding. I ensure that students are comfortable with the subject matter before progressing further, making learning less stressful and more effective. My classes are interactive and student-focused. I encourage students to ask questions, share their thoughts, and participate actively during lessons. I use practical examples, real-life connections, and discussions to make concepts easier to understand and more engaging, especially in subjects like Social Science. I conduct both online and offline classes and make use of PPTs and whiteboard-based teaching to support visual learning. My aim is to create a positive and supportive learning environment where students feel motivated, confident, and well-prepared to perform well academically while developing a genuine interest in English and Social Science.

It was really interesting, informative, and lively teaching students. I love training young minds to evolve into good, responsible future citizens who can contribute something really decent. The children participate very nicely in the question and answer sessions, and they contribute very well in the teaching-learning process. They ask very beautiful doubts so that it's easier for the teacher to refer and tell in detail. All the students prepare very well before every lesson so that they are thorough with the previous portions taught.

Sowmya had prepared slides for the class, which was a plus for me. She was well prepared for the subject and was able to clear all doubts of the students. She explained the topic clearly and made the student comfortable.
